WHEN THEY WENT INTO BATTLE TROOPS MOVINO TOWARDS ALEXANDRIA—MRS. TAYLOR—LT. DILLARD—-CAPT. FOREACRE AND LT. WITT KILLED AND WOUNDED IN THE ECHOLS GUARDS, AC., AC. Maramai, Va., Aug. 1st, 1861. Dear Taylor: I arrived on Tuesday about sunset. Let a word explain the fatigue of the trip. The cars wore crowded through the whole route, even to the platforms; no good water ; little food; no rest, and hot, hot, hot! Col. Gartrell was encamped at the Junction ; the 8th Georgia Regiment about 5 miles off, which distance we made through the dark and mud. The boys generally seem tired, weary, jaded and sad—mourning the fate of the killed and wounded. Every one was ready to relate his own adventure, and many were able to tell the story of the brave dead. The Great Battle, so greatly interesting, seems to have swallowed up all idea of the condition of the troops about the time they entered the engagement. Gen. Johnston, with about ten thousand troops, left Winchester on Thursday, about 6 o’clock, P. M., and marched towards Piedmont. About midnight they reaohed the Shenandoah river, where, I am told, a most interesting and laughable scene occurred. The command was, “Halt; untie and take off shoes; forward, and wade or swim, according to emergencies." Tis said that the appearance of the army was at that time entirely uniform. Just think of it: ten thousand men with their knapsacks and clothing on the point of their bayonets, crossing the beautiful Shenandoah at the silent hour of midnight, in the clear light of the moon. The distance from Winchester to Pied mont (a station on the railroad leading from Strasburg to Manassas Junction) is about 30 dangerous. The wounded of the enemy art dying rapidly. I shall be at home in time to resume my du ties In Gollegs, without snaneident. It It new very difficult to obtain pass to the army be. yond Riohmond. Tours very respVJy r W. P. HOWARD. From the N.

A very emaU bweiaeee was daat this men iog in stock*- those for delivery bought in some descriptions at a fractional advance on yesterday’s prices. The Southern stocks geo erally were better, and Missouri* stood 2] better than yesterday ; Louisiana 3per cent The 6s of '06 sold at 86J—a fall of lper cent The railroad bonds end chares showed a veri iation of with little of interest offering in any respect. There is title change in the rate for money; at call 4@6 per ceal., and good paper 6 psr cent. The Government loan is avoided, how ever. The publio have been wailing the ao. lion of Congress, and that so far as it has been bad to day by telegraph does not appear to be favorable. The pledge of sugar and tea duties for interest seems to have beed finally abandoned as well as the aliempted substitu lion of 9 for 6 psr ceot, interest on notes.— The 8ub Treasury act has, it appears, bsen se far repealed to allow the banks to re* tain the gold subscribed for Government loans until required for disbursement. This, In re ality, destroys the principle of the Sub-Treas ury act, and the fortunes of the Government are once more blended with those of the banks. Bytbe advices fromEuropt the demand eon* taioed in Mr. Lincoln’s Message for $4,000,- 000,000 is regarded as “absurd,’’ and the London Times iuiimates that nothing can be borrowed there. The report of the Assistant Treasurer for New York, published yesterday, shows the Customs for July to have been : July, 1800 $ 418,861 62 July, 1801 4,624,882 82 mile This march was made in 20 hours, including all stoppages, and without food or rest; and about 2 o’clock, Friday afternoon, they were jammed, rammed, crowded into a train of cars with little ventilation and some without seats. They reached the Junction during the early part of the night, and marched 3 or 4 miles out to camp and slept in the open air, too tired to cook. Many fell asleep without a mouth ful to eat Early next morning they were or dered to march to the extreme left of the main forces at the Junction, a distance of 5 or 7 miles. The next morning, Bunday, the ene my making a feint attack by firing cannon on the extreme right, Gen. Bartow went forward to meet the enemy with all poasible speed, making the diatance of ten milea in double quick time. It seems too much, but it is true. 1 mention this to give you an idea of the con dition of the 7th and 8th Ga. Regiments, when they entered the fight on Sunday. They fought all day without food, aud very little water. Such endurance, auoh fortitude, auoh bravery aud fighting, and such a victory as they won, has not a parallel in history. The conduct of the 4th Alabama, 7th and 8th Ga. Regiment* decided the fate of the day with out a doubt. It ia reasonable to supf ose that those Regi ments whose losses were the greatest were io tbe thickest of the fight; such is the case with the shove. The Adjutant promised to give me a full report of the condition of the Regiment, but unfortupately they were ordered to mareh some 8 or 10 miles from that point, making tbeir camp some 4 miles from the Junction toward Alexandria. Gen. Jones (I believe of Va.) succeeds Gen. Bartow, and, I understand, will assemble his Brigade at Camp Walker, 4 miles beyond tbe Junction towards Alexan dria. Early next morning, (after my arrival,) Lieut. Malone conducted us over tbe memora ble field. He was in tbe entire engagement, aud was able to give us a full account. His explanations were clear and vivid. I shall never forget the scene. Mrs. Taylor passed over the grounds the day before, and will give you ao oral description far more interesting than we could write. She left there for Or ange, a small town on the railroad from Rich mond to Manassas, at which place she found her brother, Lieut. Dillard, who was wounded in the upper lip. He is well cared for, and improving. Capt. Koreacre and Lt. Witt are doing well at Warrenton. They fought like tigers. Of the Echols Guards, Capt. C. W. Howard and William Godhy were killed on the field— my brother and my consin. B. Tucker, wounded in the right thigh near the hip—he is nearly recovered, up and walk ing; Levi Blount, shot through the thigh; Uesh wound, doing very well; E. Glenn, in the calf of the leg, flesh wound, getting well; J. E. Porch, in the hip, fleeh wound, getting well. These are at Orange, and receive every attention poesible under the circumstances. J. P. Atkinson, wounded in the left hip; rath er a bad wound; ball lodged ia the thigh; Eppenger, above the right ankle; Skid Adams, shot through the left knee—tbe severest wound of all. These three are et Richmond, and are yrj,vtry well cared for. About thirty of the company have been very siok with measles and fever, and only 44 were able to engage ia tbe fight. I forgot to etate that Frank Ward and Gra ham were missing, though both were seen af ter the battle. It is thought by some that Ward ie a prisoner. H. E. Malone la elected Captain of the Bch- ole Guarde; Mobley, let Lieutenant; Tram- mal, 2d Lieutenant; Glaae, Sd Lieutenant. Dr. Mayeon was with bis brother who was wounded (I believe at Charlotte.) I have net been able ae yet to see them. Wn. Maysoa, 1 learn, le improving feet; his wound is not Deorease $4,106,971 30 This ia the amount of specie received for Customs. Some $1,500,000 in Treasury notes were reoeived in addition. There is a singularity erroneous impression entertained in relation to the Government finances, that a war as expensive as the present one promises to be can be main tained by borrowing. Those who en tertain tbe idea point to England where a war was conducted by means of debt. There is ia that|an entire mistake. The debt of Eng land is indeed very large, Laving been t aboui $4,000,000,000 at tbe close of the last war ; but that debt repreeents but a small propo tion, perhaps 40 per cent of tbe cost of the French war. The largest portion of tbe ex« pen sc u was paid by taxes within the year.— Tbe largest amount ever borrowed in any one year was (in 1816) £00,000.000, or $250,- 000,000, but there was raised by taxes in the same year $300,000,000. Thus more than half the year's expenditures were always rais ed by taxes. Such a system of finance was only possible in consequence of tbe isolated position of Great Britain, and of tbe great development of manufactures of which she held a monopoly, under the stupendous in ventions of steam aud steam driven machin ery. The amount which the Government borrow ed was only equal to tbe excess of the Nation al export over tbe imports. That excess, instead of being received in goods, or gold, or produce, was taken by tbe Government and paid for in paper, whioh floated as a curren cy. It was a situation of affairs which cculd never again happen in any country. England was then tbe manufactory for the world, and the inventions of Watt, Arkwright, Whitney and hundreds of others bad impar ted the most gigantic power to the roanufac~ taring process. Thus, in the single article of cotton goods, tbe British exports, from noth ing in 1799, rose to $60,000,000 per annum in 1816. By keeping control of the sea, Eng land kept the markets of the world open to her goods, and she had no competitor. Even at tbe time of the most rigorous enforcement of tbe Continental system,Bonaparte was com polled to buy British woollens for uniforms. With the great activity of machinery and the improved supplies of raw materials, English exports grew very rapidly—at her own pri ces. This Is an important point In her finan cial system. Tbe amount due England in a year for ex ports over the importation of produce and material would be probably £30,(>00,000 or $150,000,000. The Government took that money for the use of its armies and agents.— In payment ofjhe bills it emitted Exticequer bills and other paper which floated in tbe cir culation as money in connection with the notes of the Bank that had suspended payment.— As a matter of course, ea this volume ef pa per increased, it depreciated as oompared with gold, the depreciation showing itself in a rise in the prices of commodities. With this rise in commodities en epperent prosperity attended ell branchea of industry. Commerce being uninterrupted, husieese of ell kinds was active et risiog prices, making it easy for the Gorernment to collect the enormous taxes that were levied. Thus the Gevernmeut bor rowed the money due England for exports, end the paper it paid out in return inflated prices and gave back taxes to the Treasury, England was in one year thus enabled to re alise £110,000,000 or $600,000,000 from loans and taxes. This system turned upon one sin gle point, vis : that England had a close mon opoly of supplying the world with manufac tured goods. She alone ruled the seas and alone manufactured the goods. She alone was possessed of the marvelous inventions of machinery that enabled her to turn out the goods in auy quantity, and at constantly ebsapening oost. Hence the tbe advance in the prices of those goods which the otniHslons of Government paper caused was no detri ment to her exportation, her customers were compelled to pay whatever she asked, and they in fact paid the taxes that were Imposed for the war. After the peace such e system ceased to be possible, because if the prices are inflated by paper issues the export veluo must be govern ed by the specie basis in tbe markets of the world where there ere now ao.mnnT competi tors. When, therefore, peace took place it became necessary, in order to maintain tbo markets, to reduoe the cost of goods,(the bank returned to ipeoio payments, taxes were re moved, end Uie burdens upon the oost of pro duction has been gradually reduced down ‘to tko present day. This process bee maintain ed tbe trade of Engleod, boi it kae intreesed the burden of the debt, since et tko lower priees the Interest represents e much larger Quantity of the products of ieduetry then formerly. From whet has been hem said it will be seea bew totally differoot ie tke situation of affaire here, from what U was in England, when under the feast fhrorabls circumstances U was only possible for her to borrow lees then half her annual expenditure within tho pnar. Congress has now appropriated for the ear rioe of the year e turn of $600,000,000, or equal to tbe largest expenditure ever medeby Eegland in one year; end expects to borrow tbo whole of it, although all industry, trade, values and revenues have perished To fol low the Eoglieh rule, end borrow the amount ia impossible. A bill to tax for only 4 per ceot. of the amount hae been thrown out of tho Houeo, on tho ground that tho people will not submit to it! Tho foreign trade is en- t irely dead, and affords no machinery on which to bass financial operation. Tbo project of sppeal to the people for a national loan, In imitation of the Freooh Em peror, is another instance of the mode io which the “ Cabinet compellera” jump et eou- olueions. The French population is 37,000,000 peo ple. With the advent of Napoleon, or “ that fool,’’ as tbo “ Tribune,’’ some years, habitu* ually designated him, to power, nn extraordi nary degree of prosperity developed itself, as manifest in the annually increasing exports of Freooe. These exports, for 1866, exceed ed, by 50 ^ oent., the average for the five previous years, and the indireet taxes had in creased in a similar proportion, showing the utmost general prosperity. In such a slate of affaire, tbo Emperor offered to borrow $50,000,000 in a national loan, payable io small instalments, over a period of two years, and it was taken by 99,124 subscribers, et a prioe of 94 for 4} cent, stock, and G4 for 3 pi oent. stock. This was considered ea im mense euocese among 37,000,000 people, en dowed with the highest prosperity and confi dence in the Government. The lowest sub scriptions were for $02 capital, payable in installments every twenty months. Tbe loan was followed by three others, es follows: iint. Number Subscribe™. 99,124 170,820 310,970 090,100 $400,000,000 Tbe three first loans, made in 1864-6, were not paid up until after 1857. Tbe amount raised was, therefore, about $160,000,000 "JP uni among 87,000,000 very prosperous people. About two thirds of the loans, in amount, were taken in Paris, where specula tion ran very high. If we bow compare our wn situation, we find it is proposed to bor row $600,000,000 in one year of 18,000,000 people, whose business is ruined, and whose revenues are destroyed, and who are under going a degree of industrial depression great er than was ever before experienced. To raise u the Northern Slates, this year, tbe sum ap propriated by Cot grass, would be equal, per bead, to raising in Fraoce $1,000,000,000, or six times as much as was thought a brilliant suocess for tbe firoperor! Nothing can place ‘n a dearer view the stale of exaltation with whioh the Government financiers appropriate money, and the cowardly fear with whioh they shrink from furnishing tbe means. MtOor-Goneral James Gordon Iteimctt’N Plan for Carry ing on the War. Congress has voted 600,000 men and $600.» 000,000 to carry out the war io which the Government is embarked to put down the great rebellion. There is nothing left for us but to go through it; but the question is, bow it can be carried to a speedy terminati a long langu’shing war would be destructive to every interest. Tbe plan, then, is to raise 000,000 men instead of 600,000, and to raise loan of $000,000 000 ins(e»d of $500,000,- 000. Tbe defeat at Bull Run will make tbe war oost us $100,000,000 more than would have been necessary, bad not the foolish ad vance on to Richmond been made. Uodsr tbe organising mind of McClellan, let tbe 000,000 men bo sent to some t wsnty or thirty camps of instruction, and after being under tbe best of officers, let 200,000 be pla ced on the line of the Potomac by uext Octo ber, and then let 200,000 be sent down ths Mississippi, capturing all the cities on its banks, including New Orleans. Then let 200,- 000 more be sent by sea to operate in sundry columns from tbs Atlantic coast, oapturing Charleston, Savannah, Mobile and Pensacola. As nearly the whole fighting element of the South is now in Virginia, the Cotton States would bo rapidly conquered; for the rebel army between Richmond aod Virginia could not go to their relief wiih 200,000 Un ion troops in their rear, on tko banks of the Potomac, ready to march after them, taking Richmond on tbo way. As tbo slaves are mostly to be found in ths Cotton States, these contraband goods would become spoils of war, together with all the real aod personal estate of the secessionists, ia pursusnee of the act recently introduced icto Congress canfiacating all ths property of ths rebels, houses, lands, horses and negroes. Tho slaveholders io the revolted Slates num ber about 300,000. Their slaves number about 3,000,000. Thera are about 750,000 poor whites, heads of families, in those States, who have no Slaves and no interest in slavery.— Let (he t slaves bs sold.to them at $26 per head, the price of a live Yankee caught at sea by the privateers of Jeff. Davis, the terms to be either cash or credit, to bs redeemed in Cot ton. This sale would at once create a majority of Union mea throughout tho South, while it would realise a sum of seven hundred and fif ty millions of dollars, which would pay ths expenses of war. Then the Cotton of the present slaveholders, whioh will bo found ac*. cumulated at the eeaporta end other points, must also bs seized and sold to England and Franca. The proceeds of this sale would give us a handsome profit on the war, filling tke Treasury and saving our Government the necessity of taxation by revenue, or iu any other shape for years to com*. Thus would the war be finished, peace established, aod the Union restored. All this must bo done lefore the first of May, 1862. And if it bo not done, it will only be beoause we have not tho right kind of men to comprehend the plans, or to oarrt sot tho programme.

Sines tbe new treaty waa formed with the several tribes on our Western frontier, tbey have retained the most amicable rela tions towards the Cbickasaws and Whites.— No depredations have been committed by ei ther tribe, and, it appears, all that they de sire is to be let alone to pursue their accus tomed and oheriehed modes of life. Tub Comfbdbjiatb Tbibbs.—Four of tbe tribee—Muscogees, Seminoles, Choctaws and Chickasaws—inhabiting this Territory, have formed a Confederacy, for the purpose of self- defence and the promotion of their general interests. The Fort 8 uith (Ark.) “Times,” has the following: We learn that Captain Pike has concluded treaties with tbe Choctaws, Chickasaws, Crooks and Semioolefl. All the tribes oa this froolier have formed an allianee with tbe Con federate States, except the Cberokeea. Mr. Ross is for neutrality, and a large num ber of bis people are with tbe 8outh, mostly half-bloods, while the full bloods are opposed to the 8outb, and still adhere to the old Gov ernment. The Cherokecs are very much di vided, as we learn from people who live in the Nation; and several of tbe half blood* have been compelled to flee for their lives.

Pike, on tbe part of the Confederate States, and the Indian tribes on this frontier. 8ix hundred delegates attended the Council, and, after the treaty was read and interpreted, it was rati fied without a dissenting voice. Correspondence of the New York Tribune. New Plan of the Secessionists to Carry Maryland out of the l/nlou. Baltimore, July 29, 1801. The secessionist* here are io high feather at the prospect before them. They affect no concealment of the plan which Jeff Davis has for forcing Maryland out of the Union, and transferring the battle ground to this State. Their latest version of it is this : They do not propose to disturb Baltimore, for fear it may be bombarded and burned to the ground by Col. Morris. Their wealth and property are too great to be exposed to this terrible alternative. But Jeff Davis Is to send a portion of bis army over into Maryland across the Potomac, somewhere between Har per’s Ferry and Little Falls, and ia to take post at some point which they can fortify as tbey have done Mauaesas Junction. Several points are discussed, but the general opinion of tbe sympathizers with this movement is favor of Frederick Junction. Tbe rebel ar*. my is to make a stand at tbe point chosen, in such force os to be able to maintain tbeir pO' sitiou and tbeir communication with the Vir ginia side of the Potomac. Fortifications are to be thrown up along the line of communi cation, on the banks of the river and at tbe Frederick Junction. Iu this way the Bal timore and Ohio Railroad is to be command ed. The planting of the rebel flag on the toil of Maryland, it ie confidently believed and in tended, by tbe aeoessloubt*, will be followed by a rapid uprising and concentration of tbeir fortified encampments of those 30,000 Mary land rebels which Mr. May boasted of in bis late speech before Congress, ae being ready to take up arms against tbe Uoited States.— Pending this rallying of tbe secession forces, the Legislature is to legislate the State out of the Federal Union, and thus formally com plete the rebellion. Tbe rest tbey are willing to leave to the chances of war, hoping to save Baltimore by the reduction of Washington, which they think will be easily achieved by an attack upon it from the rear. When asked bow Jeff Davis is to get his army into Mary land, with General Banks al Harper’s Ferry, they say that Joe Johnston will give him enough from tbe direction of Winchester, while Beauregard will keep Oen. McClellan busy in front of Washington, and that while they were thus engaged, Gen. Lee will alip across the Potomac and seize the Frederick Junction.
